The attack surface has expanded through every API connection and fintech partnership woven into modern banking — and a single third-party exploit can cascade across more than 100 institutions simultaneously. Banking absorbed 83% of all API endpoint attacks in 2025. Shadow APIs, accelerated dev cycles, and legacy infrastructure running alongside modern API endpoints have created visibility gaps that attackers are actively exploiting. The 2026 SOTI financial services report covers botnets, hacktivism, API exposure, and regional attack trends across EMEA, APAC, and North America.
